After Karen went up, he found a woman's body hanging above the portrait that was originally hanging on the wall at the corner.

The woman's forehead, hands and feet were all embedded with sand nails. Her arms were slightly lowered and her legs were close together.

There is also a disk under the woman's body, which emits a barrier to protect the body site.

"Mother!

!”

Leon knelt down in front of the woman, tears pouring down his face. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, feeling extremely sad.

This woman is his mother.

The chief bishop's son and daughter-in-law were both dead.

This was no longer a simple assassination attempt, because the chief bishop's family members died at the hands of assassins.

Karen took a deep breath. It was no wonder that the garrison was deployed outside but had activated the secret power of the region. It was also no wonder that the special team from the Dingge region was coming so soon.

Because this matter is too big.

At this time, Karen saw a familiar figure walking down from above, it was Bishop Bourne wearing a bishop's robe.

When he saw him, a guess instantly came to Karen's mind: Could it be that the Cult of Kosmos wanted to find a reasonable excuse for causing this incident in order to attack the Desert Cult?

Karen has this speculation based on three reasons:

One is the sand here. It is obvious that the assassin uses sand-attribute power, which is easily reminiscent of the Desert God Cult;

Second, I learned from the Compassini Burial Ground that the Cult of Kosmos had been constructing a desert belief sequence three hundred years ago in preparation for annexing the Desert Cult. Counting the time, it should be ready now;

Third, I saw Bishop Bourne here, and he often represents a conspiracy.

But after thinking about it carefully, Karen felt that it was unrealistic. The Cult of Kosmos would not kill the family of the first person in charge of a region below him just to find an excuse.

Although the internal strife within every religious cult is bloody and dark, when it comes to foreign policy, the Cult of Kosmos has always had a rather rogue attitude.

Even if they found an excuse to declare war on the Reincarnation Cult last time, weren't the Knights of Order, who were supposed to be trapped in the collapse of space, already well prepared and unscathed?

Internal conflicts are internal conflicts. When it involves the outside world, you can use some "shameless" methods, but if you really want to make excuses for others and attack your own people, it will look very low-level.

The most important thing is, if the high-level leaders of the Cult of Kosmos are really planning to use this method to stir up anger and conflict, there is no need to block the news now. Shouldn't they just directly publicize it with great fanfare and make the matter completely worse?

Bishop Bourne looked at Laian and said, "Your grandfather is waiting for you."

Leon wiped his eyes hard, stood up, and asked Bishop Bourne: "Where is the assassin?"

At this time, Laian looked like he was about to kill someone.

Bishop Bourne's eyelids drooped and he seemed too lazy to pay attention to him.

"Let me ask you, where is the assassin?"

Leon rushed to Bishop Bourne who was standing on the stairs.

Karen had to reach out to stop him again and said in his ear: "Go see your grandpa first!"

Leon froze, hit his head hard twice, very hard, and then continued to go upstairs in a panic.

Because he guessed one thing. The text message said that his grandfather was assassinated, but the assassination was unsuccessful. But looking at the current situation of his family, his grandfather must not have easily blocked the assassination. Maybe his grandfather now...

After Laian went up, Karen followed him.

Bishop Byrne looked at Karen and asked, "What did you mean by the way you looked at me just now?"

In this emergency situation, no matter how good Karen is at controlling her facial expressions, it will be difficult for her not to be noticed in front of the bishop. He only needs your eyes, or even looks at you. From the changes in your breathing,

You can get a lot of answers.

Karen replied: "I just suspected..."

Bishop Byrne interrupted before Karen could finish: "What do you think?"

"I have no doubts now."

Bishop Bourne nodded: "It's not stupid."

After saying that, Bishop Bourne walked downstairs by himself.

Karen continued upstairs. There was a small coffee table in the corner upstairs, facing the floor-to-ceiling windows. This location in Guman's villa was her grandmother's favorite. She often sat here knitting sweaters, and could see her family members coming back for the first time.

.

But now, on the small sofa next to the coffee table, an old lady was sitting there. Her mouth was pierced by a broken spear made of sand, and her whole body was nailed to the sofa.

This should be Laon's grandmother.

When Karen turned around to go to the study, she saw another man and a woman pinned to the wall outside the study, wearing servants' clothes. They should be the male and female servants at home, or they could be considered bodyguards.

What shocked Karen the most was the cleanliness of the entire home.

From Laian's father to his mother, and to the other dead people he saw along the way, apart from the sand on their bodies, there was no sand anywhere in the corner.

This means that when the other party kills these people, his method is very clean and neat, and the target who is killed has no ability to fight back in front of him.

How powerful an assassin must be to kill someone like this in a bishop's home?

Moreover, the bishop himself is still at home!

"Captain, assassins are very powerful." Philomena said.

"Is it just powerful?" Karen pursed her lips, "Such an assassin will bleed like a river wherever he goes."

Karen stretched out his hand and gently pushed open the half-open study door. Leon was not inside, but the desk was not empty, but it was not Bishop Wofron, but another middle-aged man sitting on it.

A huge sand pillar was connected to the ceiling at the top and the floor at the bottom, and passed directly through the man's body in the middle.

The man's mouth was wide open, his arms were lowered, and he was fixed here after death.

There is a family portrait hanging in the study room, and the man is also in it. He is most likely Laon's uncle.

This is headed for the destruction of the whole family!

Was it someone from the Desert God Cult who did it? Did he leave so many sand art sculptures here to deliberately show his identity, for fear that others would not know?

Now that the ridiculous speculation that the Cult of Kosmos is directing and acting on its own has been ruled out, what the assassin wants to reveal deserves real attention.

Karen let out a long sigh of relief. No matter what, when he saw this, he was already angry in his heart.

As a priest of order, the family members of the chief bishop of his own region were nailed and fixed at home one by one by outsiders... No matter whether Karen was from the Whip of Order system or the regional management office, he would feel a deep sense of humiliation.

feel.

And this sense of humiliation doesn't just end here, the sense of humiliation at the top will only get worse.

It can even be said that if the Desert God Sect really jumped out and issued a statement saying that this matter was done by someone within their sect, they would be responsible for it.

Then the war... is almost inevitable. The Knights of Order will be mobilized immediately and march towards the Desert God Cult.

No, even if the Desert God Cult is not that stupid, there will definitely be an explanation for what is going on here, and the anger of Order will definitely be vented.

"Let me in, I am Laian, this is my home, my grandpa is inside!"

Leon was stopped by three priests at the door of the bedroom.

"Sorry, the Chief is currently undergoing a new round of treatment, please wait a moment."

"I want to go in, I want to see grandpa now!"

"Laion!" Karen could only play the villain again, "Wait until the treatment is over."

Leon bit his lip and stopped there. Soon, his lip began to bleed.

Philomena said: "My family..."

Before Philomena could finish speaking, Karen glanced over with warning eyes.

Philomena shut up immediately.

What she just wanted to say was that she didn't have any special feelings when someone died in her family.

Of course, she was not making sarcastic remarks, her original intention was to comfort Leo.

However, she is not good at comforting people. Just like Uncle Eisen needs to learn to get along with her aunt again, Philomena, who has left her original family, also needs to really start learning how to get along with others.

"Plop!"

Leon knelt on the ground again, holding his head in his hands, tears and snot dripping from his nose.

He felt ridiculous and regretful that when his family was assassinated, he himself was lying in the arms of a prostitute, chatting and sleeping.

At this time, the strong sense of self-blame seemed to have turned into a raging fire, constantly burning his heart, making him extremely disgusted with himself.

Karen didn't come forward again, because at this time, Laian didn't need comfort from outsiders at all.

Finally, a priest with white lines on his chest came out: "You can go in."

Leon immediately stood up and walked into the bedroom.

Karen walked to the door and looked inside. Bishop Wofulun was sitting on the bed. The injury should be on his chest. At this time, the bishop's face was very pale. This was the result of emergency treatment.

"The Bishop's injury..." Karen looked at the priest.

"Fortunately, Mr. Bernie came in time, otherwise it might be... now, I can only say that the situation is very bad, and the chief is just holding on."
To be continued...
